It Is Well to Remember

That anxiety is easier to bear than sor-
row.
That talent is sometimes hid in nap
kins, audacity never.
That good brains are often kept in q
poor looking vessel.
That an insect has feeling and an atom
ashadow.
That the most brilliant roses bloom
among the sharpest thorns.
That the time to bury a hatchet is be-
fore blood is found upon it.
That no man is born into the world
whose work is not born with him.
That mistakes are often bought at a big
price and sold at small one.
That leisure is a very pleasant garment,
but bad one for constant wear
That the best way to keep good acts
in memory is to refresh them with new
ones.
That if it were not for emergencies,
but little progress would be made in the
world.
That it is often better to go a good
ways round than to take short cut
across lots.
That the statement so often made in
print that crest makes rust" is the veriest
rot.
That the highest of labors are burden
to those who have no motive for perform
ing them.
That men often preach from the house
tops while the devil is crawling into the
basement window.
That contentment is a good thing until
it reaches the point where it sits in the
shade and lets the weeds grow.
That tears she'd upon coffin will not
blot out the stains that may have been
cast in life upon the stilled heart within it.
That many man sets up carriage
only to find less of enjoyment in it than
he has had in holding the ribbons from
his lone hoss shay"
That if we would do more for others
while we may we should have less re-
regrets, when too late, chat more had not
been done when ''it might have been. -

The Sea Serpent.

The history of this animal, whether
real or imaginary, is certainly interest
ing. 1t was often seen, it is said, on the
coasts of Norway and New England. The
waters in those localities appear to be its
favorite resorts. According to reports
it was seen every day for month in the
former region in 1919, lying on top of
the water, apparently doing in the sun
1t was subsequently observed near the
same place in 1922 and 1887. Its ap-
pearances in American waters were in
1915, 1917, 1919, 1888, 1885, 1S48, and
many times in recent years. The length
of the creature, as given in the reports of
persons who said they saw it, varies from
seventy feet to a figure several times
greater. Pontoppidan, in his Natural
History of Norway" assigns it length
of 800 feet. Other authorities make it
even longer than this. 1t is said to have
a slender, snakelike appearance, with a
head the size of horse, and a long and
narrow neck. Some persons declare it
has fins. Nearly the whole of the body,
as well as the tail, was upon the surface
OF the water usually when seen, and il
swan with an undulating motion, the
head being kept erect and from dozen
to twenty feet out Of the water.
Naturalists are divided in opinion as to
whether the sea serpent is mythical OF
real. Many of the most eminent and con,
seryative, however, are inclined to be-
lieve that such a creature exists. Globe

Hints and Recipes.

Two apples kept in the cake-box will
keep .moderately-rich cake moist for a
great length of time, if the apples are
renewed when withered.
Old flannel of all kinds should be kept
for scrubbing and cleaning paint. Next
to flannel come coarse, soft linen, old
kitchen towels, crash &c.
When you make custard or other pie
with "stand-up crust, " if you will pin a
narrow stripe of cloth around it it will
not bake SO hard, and will keep in better
shape.

worked to cream with two cups of sugar /;
one cup of milk in which is dissolved

sorts that have been patented are given
in these Autographs, and the groups of
patent attorneys and inventors are there
studying them with great care. One Of
the officials told the reporter that num-
Der of people whose minds ran in that
way came there and looked the drawings
over just TO try and get ideas so they
could invent something. There are emany
curious people that have become sort of
attachments to the office men who de
vote their lives to trying invention and
never succeed Like the men who have
claims before Congress of many years

Every now and then they think they
have made some valuable discovery, and
when they are disappointed they go at it
again. Thousands upon thousands OF
things are patented that never amount to
anything, and there is hardly a thing
that can be thought Of that there is not

Keep wounded or injured person on

gentle. The handiest of all stretchers is
q large shutter or door, with a mattress
or pillows on it; or plaid blanket used
as q hammock will do, or a net hammock

While one party rs carrying home or to
drug store the injured person, some one
must be sent to procure surgical assist
ance.
The sooner surgical aid is got the
more chance OF speedy recovery will
the patient have.
Be careful not to give brandy in inju-
ries to the head. You might commit
fatal error.
The best way to distinguish fracture
